- Dictatorship Disguised as Democracy
This fact is clear in practice. When an ideological doctrine reaches power through a particular party, it will try to impose its political perspective on the country in one way or another. It could be said that the people themselves elected and brought this doctrine to power.
In response, I would say that the people brought this party and its ideological doctrine into power based on what was available in the political arena during the election period. People do not know what will happen afterwards. If something arises from this ruling regime that is harmful to their religious or worldly interests, they cannot stop it. As the saying goes, it has gone past the point of no return.
This is how the likes of Hitler, who wreaked havoc in the land, reached power: through the alleged elections and democracy. If some say that what happened in Germany was due to the immaturity of democracy at the time, it is the same situation in Italy today. A party that had reached power thrust Italy into a rotten war against Islam and Muslims alongside America. The Italian people are currently opposed to this government, and the opposition is calling for the withdrawal of Italian forces. However, this oppressive group insists on maintaining the occupation with the presence of Italian forces in Iraq. Hence, dictatorship and fascism have returned to Italy during this time. Moreover, in democratic Britain, which is the United States’ main ally in the occupation of Iraq and aggression toward Islam and Muslims, millions of people have protested in the streets of London condemning this colonial war. Regardless, the British government’s decision was not affected. This leads us to conclude that dictatorship is disguised as democracy.
- The Biggest Democratic Country in the World Practices Dictatorship
Although the regime in the United States appears to be democratic, it still practices the ugliest forms of dominance and dictatorship toward the people of the world. This clearly contradicts the concept of democracy. A regime that holds a solid doctrine must apply it to everyone in every place and time, without exception. However, the United States wants to humiliate and dominate the people of the earth, and treat Muslims in particular with contempt and disdain, because they know that Imam Al-Mahdi pbuh, the Imam of all Muslims, will bring the United States to an end. Furthermore, American Muslims living in the United States suffer from discrimination. Where is the democracy in that?
- Democracy and Money
Democracy has no place for those who do not have money for propaganda, lies, falsification of facts, and for hiring mercenaries and villains. Thus, the power of money appears in the democratic regime in an unnatural way. Parties and organizations steal the money of the poor and needy, and treason ensues.
In the United States, Jews control the course of the elections through money and achieve a success rate of at least 70% in nominating whoever they want to the helm of governance in the United States, in order to continue American support for the Zionist State 14 .The use of deceptive and false propaganda and the dominance of money in democracy is frequently discussed in American newspapers. In fact, I remember reading an article years ago by an American author who declared that democracy in the United States is just a sham and a meager spectacle, and the true ruler is really deception, fraud, and money.
- Democracy and Liberty
There is no regime in the world that recognizes absolute liberty; even the democratic regime places constraints on the freedom of individuals and groups. What is the extent of these constraints that diminish liberty? And to what extent can we give individuals and groups free rein to do whatever they want?!
The constraints on freedom within democracy are set up by the people. They certainly make mistakes, and most care only about satisfying their desires. That is why in democracy, constraints are placed over religion, reform, and commanding good and forbidding evil, because within the divine religion there is a law—the divine law—which opposes the written law. Democracy permits excessive desires, corruption, deprivation and wandering into what God has prohibited. Consequently, all societies where democracy is implemented have deteriorated and degenerated because the written law protects those who engage in adultery, corruption, drinking alcohol, those who encourage the nudity of women, and other forms of corruption.
- Democracy and Religion
Undoubtedly, the divine religion has a view that is very different than the democratic view. The religion of God only recognizes the appointment made by God {I am making a vicegerent on the earth}, who is the Mahdi pbuh. It also recognizes the divine law in our Islamic era (the Quran). As for the Jews, they recognize Elijah pbuh and the Torah; as for the Christians, they recognize Jesus pbuh and the Gospel. If this is the case, then how can a Muslim, Christian, or Jew claim to believe in God and to accept His supremacy, represented by the Mahdi pbuh and the Quran, or by Jesus pbuh and the Gospel, or by Elijah pbuh and the Torah, and at the same time accept the supremacy of people and democracy, which refutes the divine religion's foundation and God's supremacy on His earth?
Those who accept democracy and elections have no connection whatsoever to the divine religion, and have disbelieved in all religions and in God's supremacy on His earth.
